- Each third lateral section (7, 11) consists of a tube (32), a housing (22) which located above the corresponding rotor (14) and two articulation tips (33 and 34) which are located at the ends.
- Each fourth lateral section (8, 12) which is located at one end of the chassis (1) consists of a tube (35), a housing (23) which is located above the corresponding rotor (14) and a joint end piece (36).
- each first hydraulic cylinder (37, 38) On each side of the central section (4) is hung a first cylinder hydraulic (37, 38) which connects said central section (4) to the second lateral section (6, 10).

- the attachment of each first hydraulic cylinder (37, 38) to the second lateral section (6, 10) is ensured by means of a hinge pin (41) which is engaged in cylindrical holes provided in two parallel legs (42) secured to the corresponding articulation end piece (30).
- a rod-shaped stop (43) On each axis (41) is in above articulated.
- This stop (43) cooperates with a stop (44) provided on the housing (20) of the first lateral section (5, 9).
- This stop (44) and this stop (43) make it possible to limit the pivoting angle upwards from the second lateral section (6, 10) relative to the first lateral section (5, 9).
- the central section (4) has stops (52 and 53) which limit the angle of pivoting upwards of the first lateral sections (5, 9).
- a second hydraulic cylinder (45, 46) which connects the second lateral section (6, 10) to the third lateral section (7, 11). It is articulated on the second lateral section (6, 10) by means of an axis (47) which is housed in cylindrical holes of two parallel legs (48) integral with said section (6, 10).
- the connection between each second cylinder hydraulic (45, 46) and the corresponding third lateral section (7, 11) is produced by means (49) which provide a large lever for said audit hydraulic cylinder (45, 46) both when folding into the transport position and when return to working position.
- These means (49) include a pin (50) which is integral with the hydraulic cylinder (45, 46).
- This pin (50) is guided by means of an eccentric disc so that it moves in slots provided in plates (51) which are fixed on the third lateral section (7, 11), during the transposition of the third and fourth lateral sections (7, 11 and 8, 12). This pin (50) then keeps the hydraulic cylinder (45, 46) away from the axis hinge (13) of the third lateral section (7, 11) both in the position of working and in the transport position.
- the first and second hydraulic cylinders (37, 38 and 45, 46) are of preferably double acting. They are connected to the hydraulic system of the tractor and are operated from it.
- each damping device (54, 55) consists of a tension spring (56) and a compression spring (57). These two springs (56 and 57) are substantially parallel and arranged one next to the other.
- the tension spring (56) is hooked to a first axis (58) which is secured to the fourth lateral section (8, 12) and to a plate (59) secured a threaded rod (60) which is fixed on a second axis (61) integral with the third lateral section (7, 11).
- This threaded rod (60) makes it possible to adjust the spring tension traction (56).
- This spring (56) acts essentially during the unfolding of the section lateral (8, 12).
- the compression spring (57) is mounted on a guide rod (62) which crosses the first axis (58) and which is fixed on the second axis (61).
- This rod (62) carries in addition a washer (63) and locking nuts (64) which adjust the pressure of the spring (57) located between this washer (63) and the first axis (58).
- This spring (57) thus acts essentially during the folding of the lateral section (8, 12).
- the damping devices (54, 55) include means (66) for limitation of the movements of the lateral sections (8 and 12) around their axes articulation (13).
- This limitation means (66) consists of two bars (67 and 68) located between the springs (56 and 57). Each bar (67, 68) has a hole cylindrical (69) with which it is mounted on the first axis (58) integral with the fourth lateral section (8, 12) and an oblong hole (70) with which it is mounted on the second axis (61) integral with the third lateral section (7, 11). Said bars (67 and 68) move with the fourth lateral sections (8, 12) when these pivot around their axes of articulation (13). The ends of the holes oblongs (70) limit said pivoting when they abut against the second axis (61).
- Each damping device (54, 55) can also include a single spring (73) arranged to work in compression and tension (see figure 6).
- This spring (73) is fixed at one of its ends to a rod (74) which is articulated on the fourth lateral section (8, 12) by means of an axis (75). To his other end it is fixed on a second rod (76) which is articulated on the third lateral section (7, 11) by means of a pin (77).
- These two rods (74 and 76) guide the spring (73). Between them there is a game which allows the spring (73) to compress by a certain value during folding. In addition, they limit the folding angle when they meet. The unfolding angle can be limited with stops provided on the lower sides of the end caps articulation (34 and 36) of the third and fourth lateral sections (7, 11 and 8, 12).
- Each second lateral section (6, 10) has on its beam (28) a support (71, 72) for the fourth lateral section (8, 12) in the folded position for the transport.
- the machine occupies the position shown in Figures 1 and 2. It is then coupled to a tractor and can be moved with it in the direction of the arrow (A). All sections lateral (5 to 12) are deployed and are carried by the wheels (24) which rest on the ground. The rotors (14) are rotated around the support axes (18) of so as to turn two by two in convergence at the front (arrows F and F ').
- the fourth lateral sections (8, 12) pivot freely relative to the third sections lateral, around their axes of articulation (13), in particular after having passed the vertical position. These pivotings are absorbed by the devices depreciation (54, 55).
- the spring (57) is compresses until the ends of the oblong holes (70) in the bars (67, 68) abut against the second axes (61).
- the spring (73) compresses until the two rods (74 and 76) meet.
- the first hydraulic cylinders (37, 38) are actuated so that they retract. They pull on the second lateral sections (6, 10) and make them pivot around their articulation axes (13) with the first lateral sections (5, 9).
- the third and fourth lateral sections (7, 11 and 8, 12) move then with the second lateral sections (6, 10).
- the pivoting of the second lateral sections (6, 10) are carried out until their stops (43) meet the stops (44) integral with the first lateral sections (5, 9). Swivel angle obtained is approximately 7 °.
- the stops (44) then block the second sections lateral (6, 10) relative to the first lateral sections (5, 9).
- the first hydraulic cylinders (37, 38) rotate all of the sections lateral (5 to 12) around the axes of articulation (13) with the central section (4).
- the pivot angle around these articulation axes is close to 90 °.
- the lateral sections (5 to 12) are substantially vertical, the first and second lateral sections (5, 9 and 6, 10) being directed upwards and the third and fourth lateral sections (7, 11 and 8, 12) being directed towards the down from their respective hinge pins (13) (see Figure 4).
- These sections side (5 to 12) can possibly be immobilized in this position when by means of mechanical locks associated with hydraulic cylinders (37, 38). The width of the machine is thus very reduced without its length being increased. Therefore, this position is ideal for transport.
- the first cylinders hydraulics (37, 38) are actuated so that they lengthen.
- the lateral sections (5 to 12) pivot down until the wheels (24) of the rotors (14) of the first and second lateral sections (5, 9 and 6, 10) rest on the ground.
- the second hydraulic cylinders (45, 46) are actuated so that they lengthen. These push the third and fourth lateral sections (7, 11 and 8, 12) outwards and rotate them around the hinge pins (13) with the second lateral sections (6, 10).
- the springs (56 or 73) of the devices (54, 55) dampen the pivoting of the fourth lateral sections (8, 12) around their axes (13) with the third lateral sections (7, 11) when they have passed the vertical position. This pivoting is stopped when the ends of the orifices oblong (70) bars (67, 68) abut against the second axes (61) or when the stops of the end pieces (34 and 36) meet.
- the pins (50) of the second hydraulic cylinders (45, 46) move up in the slots plates (51) so that they are again some distance above hinge pins (13).
- the rotors (14) can be rotated as described previously.
Abstract
Description
La présente invention se rapporte à une machine de fenaison, notamment une faneuse, comportant un châssis pouvant être accouplé à un tracteur, lequel châssis se compose d'un tronçon central et de plusieurs tronçons latéraux qui sont articulés entre eux et qui portent des rotors montés sur des axes supports autour desquels ils peuvent être entraínés en rotation au moyen d'organes de transmission qui sont logés dans les tronçons du châssis, lesdits tronçons latéraux pouvant être transposés au moyen de vérins hydrauliques dans une position de travail dans laquelle ils sont sensiblement alignés et dans une position de transport dans laquelle ils sont repliés autour de leurs axes d'articulation.The present invention relates to a haymaking machine, in particular a tedder, comprising a chassis which can be coupled to a tractor, which chassis consists of a central section and several lateral sections which are articulated between them and which carry rotors mounted on support axes around which they can be rotated by means of transmission members which are housed in the chassis sections, said lateral sections being able to be transposed by means of hydraulic cylinders in a working position in which they are substantially aligned and in a transport position in which they are folded around their axes of articulation.
Sur une machine connue de ce genre, les tronçons latéraux situés aux deux extrémités du châssis pivotent librement, sous l'effet de leur propre poids, autour de leurs axes d'articulation lorsqu'ils passent en position repliée ou en position dépliée. Ces tronçons comportent au niveau de leurs axes d'articulation des dispositifs pour freiner lesdits pivotements. Ceux-ci restent cependant relativement brusques.On a known machine of this kind, the lateral sections situated at the two chassis ends pivot freely, under the effect of their own weight, around of their articulation axes when they pass into the folded position or into the unfolded. These sections include, at their articulation axes, devices for braking said pivotings. These remain however relatively abrupt.
De plus, lorsque ces tronçons arrivent dans la position finale au repliage et au dépliage, ils rencontrent avec une certaine force des butées destinées à limiter leurs déplacements. Cela provoque à chaque fois un choc qui est bruyant et qui peut provoquer une rapide usure des pièces sollicitées.In addition, when these sections arrive in the final position for folding and when unfolding, they meet with a certain force stops intended to limit their movements. This causes each time a shock which is noisy and which can cause rapid wear of stressed parts.
Le but de la présente invention est de proposer une machine telle que décrite dans l'introduction et qui ne comporte pas les inconvénients précités de la machine connue.The object of the present invention is to provide a machine as described in the introduction and which does not have the aforementioned drawbacks of the machine known.
A cet effet, une importante caractéristique de l'invention consiste en ce que la machine est équipée au moins au niveau des axes d'articulation entre les tronçons latéraux qui se replient ou se déplient librement, de dispositifs qui amortissent leurs déplacements autour desdits axes. Ces dispositifs sont constitués par un ou plusieurs ressorts agencés de manière à travailler à la traction et à la compression. Ils assurent une sorte de délestage des éléments qui pivotent et évitent ainsi les mouvements brusques de ces derniers dans les deux directions de déplacement. Ces dispositifs sont relativement simples. Ils peuvent également comporter des moyens qui limitent lesdits déplacements. To this end, an important characteristic of the invention consists in that the machine is equipped at least at the level of the axes of articulation between the side sections which fold or unfold freely, of devices which dampen their movements around said axes. These devices are made up by one or more springs arranged so as to work in tension and compression. They provide a kind of load shedding of the elements which pivot and thus avoid sudden movements of the latter in both directions of displacement. These devices are relatively simple. They can also include means which limit said movements.

Sur les figures 1 à 3, seule la partie gauche de la machine est entièrement représentée pour une meilleure clarté. On comprendra que la partie droite est symétrique et présente les mêmes caractéristiques. Cette machine comporte un châssis (1) pouvant être accouplé à un tracteur servant à l'animer et à la déplacer dans la direction (A). A cet effet, le châssis (1) possède une poutre (2) qui porte à son extrémité avant un dispositif d'accouplement (3). Ce châssis (1) se compose par ailleurs d'un tronçon central (4) et de quatre tronçons latéraux (5 à 8 et 9 à 12) de chaque côté dudit tronçon central (4). Au total, le châssis (1) comprend huit tronçons latéraux. Ce nombre peut varier en fonction de la largeur recherchée pour la machine. Selon leur position par rapport au tronçon central (4), ces tronçons latéraux (5 à 12) sont appelés ci-après premiers, deuxièmes, troisièmes et quatrièmes tronçons latéraux. La poutre (2) est fixée au tronçon central (4). Les tronçons (4 à 12) sont articulés entre eux au moyen d'axes d'articulation (13) qui sont sensiblement horizontaux et dirigés dans la direction d'avancement (A).In Figures 1 to 3, only the left side of the machine is fully shown for clarity. We will understand that the right part is symmetrical and has the same characteristics. This machine has a chassis (1) which can be coupled to a tractor used to animate and move it in direction (A). To this end, the chassis (1) has a beam (2) which carries its end before a coupling device (3). This chassis (1) consists of also a central section (4) and four lateral sections (5 to 8 and 9 to 12) on each side of said central section (4). In total, the chassis (1) includes eight lateral sections. This number may vary depending on the width sought for the machine. Depending on their position relative to the central section (4), these sections lateral (5 to 12) are hereinafter called first, second, third and fourth lateral sections. The beam (2) is fixed to the central section (4). The sections (4 to 12) are hinged together by means of hinge pins (13) which are substantially horizontal and directed in the direction of advance (A).
Le tronçon central (4) comporte deux rotors (14) et chaque tronçon latéral (5 à 12) porte un seul rotor (14). Chacun de ces rotors (14) est constitué par un moyeu (15) sur lequel sont fixés plusieurs bras (16) portant des fourches de travail (17) à leurs extrémités libres. Chacun de ces moyeux (15) est monté de manière à pouvoir tourner sur un axe support (18). Celui-ci est sensiblement vertical ou incliné dans la direction d'avancement (A). Les axes supports (18) sont montés dans des paliers prévus dans des boítiers (19 à 23) des tronçons (4 à 12) respectifs. Chacun de ces axes supports (18) porte à son extrémité inférieure une ou deux roues (24) qui roulent sur le sol durant le travail.The central section (4) comprises two rotors (14) and each lateral section (5 12) carries a single rotor (14). Each of these rotors (14) is constituted by a hub (15) on which are fixed several arms (16) carrying working forks (17) at their free ends. Each of these hubs (15) is mounted so as to be able to rotate on a support axis (18). This is substantially vertical or tilted in the direction of travel (A). Support pins (18) are mounted in bearings provided in housings (19 to 23) of the respective sections (4 to 12). Each of these support axes (18) carries at its lower end one or two wheels (24) which roll on the ground during work.
Les rotors (14) peuvent être entraínés en rotation autour de leurs axes supports (18) au moyen d'arbres de transmission qui sont logés dans les tronçons (4 à 12). A cet effet, ces arbres de transmission comportent des pignons d'entraínement qui engrènent avec des couronnes dentées solidaires des moyeux (15) des rotors (14). Ces pignons d'entraínement et ces couronnes dentées se situent dans les boítiers (19 à 23) desdits tronçons (4 à 12). Au niveau des axes d'articulation (13) entre ces tronçons (4 à 12), lesdits arbres de transmission sont reliés entre eux par des dispositifs d'accouplement à cardans ou à doigts. Ces dispositifs d'accouplement permettent aux arbres de transmission de pivoter avec leurs tronçons (4 à 12) respectifs autour de leurs axes d'articulation (13).The rotors (14) can be rotated about their axes supports (18) by means of drive shafts which are housed in the sections (4 to 12). To this end, these transmission shafts include pinions which mesh with toothed rings integral with the hubs (15) rotors (14). These drive gears and toothed rings are located in the housings (19 to 23) of said sections (4 to 12). At the axes articulation (13) between these sections (4 to 12), said transmission shafts are interconnected by cardan or finger coupling devices. These coupling devices allow the drive shafts to pivot with their respective sections (4 to 12) around their axes of articulation (13).
L'arbre de transmission qui est logé dans le tronçon central (4) comporte dans un carter (65) un pignon d'entraínement supplémentaire. Celui-ci est en prise avec un pignon qui est solidaire d'un arbre de transmission qui s'étend hors dudit carter (65). Cet arbre de transmission peut être relié à un arbre de prise de force du tracteur au moyen d'un arbre à cardans.The drive shaft which is housed in the central section (4) comprises in a housing (65) an additional drive gear. This one is in engagement with a pinion which is integral with a drive shaft which extends outside said casing (65). This drive shaft can be connected to a PTO shaft of the tractor by means of a cardan shaft.
Chaque premier tronçon latéral (5, 9) se compose d'un tube (25), d'un boítier (20) qui se situe au-dessus du rotor (14) correspondant et de deux embouts d'articulation (26 et 27) situés à ses extrémités. Chaque deuxième tronçon latéral (6, 10) se compose de deux tubes (28 et 29), d'un boítier (21) qui se situe au-dessus du rotor (14) correspondant et qui relie les deux tubes (28 et 29) entre eux et de deux embouts d'articulation (30 et 31) situés à ses extrémités. Chaque troisième tronçon latéral (7, 11) se compose d'un tube (32), d'un boítier (22) qui se situe au-dessus du rotor (14) correspondant et de deux embouts d'articulation (33 et 34) qui se situent aux extrémités. Chaque quatrième tronçon latéral (8, 12) qui se situe à une extrémité du châssis (1) se compose d'un tube (35), d'un boítier (23) qui se situe au-dessus du rotor (14) correspondant et d'un embout d'articulation (36).Each first lateral section (5, 9) consists of a tube (25), a housing (20) which is located above the corresponding rotor (14) and two end caps articulation (26 and 27) located at its ends. Each second lateral section (6, 10) consists of two tubes (28 and 29), a housing (21) which is located above the corresponding rotor (14) which connects the two tubes (28 and 29) together and two articulation tips (30 and 31) located at its ends. Each third lateral section (7, 11) consists of a tube (32), a housing (22) which located above the corresponding rotor (14) and two articulation tips (33 and 34) which are located at the ends. Each fourth lateral section (8, 12) which is located at one end of the chassis (1) consists of a tube (35), a housing (23) which is located above the corresponding rotor (14) and a joint end piece (36).
De chaque côté du tronçon central (4) est accroché un premier vérin hydraulique (37, 38) qui relie ledit tronçon central (4) au deuxième tronçon latéral (6, 10). L'accrochage de chaque premier vérin hydraulique (37, 38) au tronçon central (4) est effectué au moyen d'un axe d'articulation (39) qui est logé dans des orifices oblongs de deux plaques parallèles (40) qui sont solidaires du tronçon central (4). L'accrochage de chaque premier vérin hydraulique (37, 38) au deuxième tronçon latéral (6, 10) est assuré à l'aide d'un axe d'articulation (41) qui est engagé dans des trous cylindriques prévus dans deux pattes parallèles (42) solidaires de l'embout d'articulation (30) correspondant. Sur chaque axe (41) est en sus articulé un arrêt (43) en forme de tige. L'extrémité libre de cet arrêt (43) coopère avec une butée (44) prévue sur le boítier (20) du premier tronçon latéral (5, 9). Cette butée (44) et cet arrêt (43) permettent de limiter l'angle de pivotement vers le haut du second tronçon latéral (6, 10) par rapport au premier tronçon latéral (5, 9). Le tronçon central (4) comporte des butées (52 et 53) qui limitent l'angle de pivotement vers le haut des premiers tronçons latéraux (5, 9).On each side of the central section (4) is hung a first cylinder hydraulic (37, 38) which connects said central section (4) to the second lateral section (6, 10). The attachment of each first hydraulic cylinder (37, 38) to the section central (4) is effected by means of a hinge pin (39) which is housed in oblong holes of two parallel plates (40) which are integral with the section central (4). The attachment of each first hydraulic cylinder (37, 38) to the second lateral section (6, 10) is ensured by means of a hinge pin (41) which is engaged in cylindrical holes provided in two parallel legs (42) secured to the corresponding articulation end piece (30). On each axis (41) is in above articulated a rod-shaped stop (43). The free end of this stop (43) cooperates with a stop (44) provided on the housing (20) of the first lateral section (5, 9). This stop (44) and this stop (43) make it possible to limit the pivoting angle upwards from the second lateral section (6, 10) relative to the first lateral section (5, 9). The central section (4) has stops (52 and 53) which limit the angle of pivoting upwards of the first lateral sections (5, 9).
De chaque côté du tronçon central (4) est prévu un second vérin hydraulique (45, 46) qui relie le deuxième tronçon latéral (6, 10) au troisième tronçon latéral (7, 11). Il est articulé sur le deuxième tronçon latéral (6, 10) au moyen d'un axe (47) qui est logé dans des trous cylindriques de deux pattes parallèles (48) solidaires dudit tronçon (6, 10). La liaison entre chaque deuxième vérin hydraulique (45, 46) et le troisième tronçon latéral (7, 11) correspondant est réalisée à travers des moyens (49) qui assurent un important bras de levier audit vérin hydraulique (45, 46) à la fois lors du repliage en position de transport et du retour en position de travail. Ces moyens (49) comprennent un tourillon (50) qui est solidaire du vérin hydraulique (45, 46). Ce tourillon (50) est guidé au moyen d'un disque excentré de telle sorte qu'il se déplace dans des fentes prévues dans des plaques (51) qui sont fixées sur le troisième tronçon latéral (7, 11), durant la transposition des troisièmes et quatrièmes tronçons latéraux (7, 11 et 8, 12). Ce tourillon (50) maintient alors le vérin hydraulique (45, 46) éloigné de l'axe d'articulation (13) du troisième tronçon latéral (7, 11) à la fois dans la position de travail et dans la position de transport.On each side of the central section (4) is provided a second hydraulic cylinder (45, 46) which connects the second lateral section (6, 10) to the third lateral section (7, 11). It is articulated on the second lateral section (6, 10) by means of an axis (47) which is housed in cylindrical holes of two parallel legs (48) integral with said section (6, 10). The connection between each second cylinder hydraulic (45, 46) and the corresponding third lateral section (7, 11) is produced by means (49) which provide a large lever for said audit hydraulic cylinder (45, 46) both when folding into the transport position and when return to working position. These means (49) include a pin (50) which is integral with the hydraulic cylinder (45, 46). This pin (50) is guided by means of an eccentric disc so that it moves in slots provided in plates (51) which are fixed on the third lateral section (7, 11), during the transposition of the third and fourth lateral sections (7, 11 and 8, 12). This pin (50) then keeps the hydraulic cylinder (45, 46) away from the axis hinge (13) of the third lateral section (7, 11) both in the position of working and in the transport position.
Les premiers et deuxièmes vérins hydrauliques (37, 38 et 45, 46) sont de préférence à double effet. Ils sont reliés au circuit hydraulique du tracteur et sont actionnés à partir de celui-ci.The first and second hydraulic cylinders (37, 38 and 45, 46) are of preferably double acting. They are connected to the hydraulic system of the tractor and are operated from it.
Aucun vérin hydraulique n'est relié aux quatrièmes tronçons latéraux (8, 12). Ceux-ci pivotent librement autour de leurs axes d'articulation (13) lors du repliage et du dépliage. Au niveau de ces axes d'articulation (13) entre les troisièmes et quatrièmes tronçons latéraux (7, 11 et 8, 12) sont montés des dispositifs (54, 55) d'amortissement des pivotements desdits quatrièmes tronçons latéraux (8, 12). Ces dispositifs d'amortissement (54, 55) sont reliés aux deux tronçons latéraux voisins (7 et 8, 11 et 12) et passent au-dessus de leurs axes d'articulation (13) respectifs. Comme cela est représenté sur la figure 5, chaque dispositif d'amortissement (54, 55) se compose d'un ressort de traction (56) et d'un ressort de compression (57). Ces deux ressorts (56 et 57) sont sensiblement parallèles et disposés l'un à côté de l'autre. Le ressort de traction (56) est accroché à un premier axe (58) qui est solidaire du quatrième tronçon latéral (8, 12) et à une plaquette (59) solidaire d'une tige filetée (60) qui est fixée sur un deuxième axe (61) solidaire du troisième tronçon latéral (7, 11). Cette tige filetée (60) permet de régler la tension du ressort de traction (56). Ce ressort (56) agit essentiellement durant le dépliage du tronçon latéral (8, 12). Le ressort de compression (57) est monté sur une tige de guidage (62) qui traverse le premier axe (58) et qui est fixée sur le deuxième axe (61). Cette tige (62) porte en sus une rondelle (63) et des écrous de blocage (64) qui permettent de régler la pression du ressort (57) qui se situe entre cette rondelle (63) et le premier axe (58). Ce ressort (57) agit ainsi essentiellement durant le repliage du tronçon latéral (8, 12).No hydraulic cylinder is connected to the fourth lateral sections (8, 12). These pivot freely around their axes of articulation (13) during folding and unfolding. At the level of these axes of articulation (13) between the third and fourth lateral sections (7, 11 and 8, 12) are mounted devices (54, 55) for damping the pivotings of said fourth lateral sections (8, 12). These damping devices (54, 55) are connected to the two adjacent lateral sections (7 and 8, 11 and 12) and pass over their respective axes of articulation (13). As shown in FIG. 5, each damping device (54, 55) consists of a tension spring (56) and a compression spring (57). These two springs (56 and 57) are substantially parallel and arranged one next to the other. The tension spring (56) is hooked to a first axis (58) which is secured to the fourth lateral section (8, 12) and to a plate (59) secured a threaded rod (60) which is fixed on a second axis (61) integral with the third lateral section (7, 11). This threaded rod (60) makes it possible to adjust the spring tension traction (56). This spring (56) acts essentially during the unfolding of the section lateral (8, 12). The compression spring (57) is mounted on a guide rod (62) which crosses the first axis (58) and which is fixed on the second axis (61). This rod (62) carries in addition a washer (63) and locking nuts (64) which adjust the pressure of the spring (57) located between this washer (63) and the first axis (58). This spring (57) thus acts essentially during the folding of the lateral section (8, 12).
Les dispositifs d'amortissement (54, 55) comportent un moyen (66) de limitation des déplacements des tronçons latéraux (8 et 12) autour de leurs axes d'articulation (13). Ce moyen de limitation (66) est constitué par deux barres (67 et 68) situées entre les ressorts (56 et 57). Chaque barre (67, 68) comporte un trou cylindrique (69) avec lequel elle est montée sur le premier axe (58) solidaire du quatrième tronçon latéral (8, 12) et un trou oblong (70) avec lequel elle est montée sur le deuxième axe (61) solidaire du troisième tronçon latéral (7, 11). Lesdites barres (67 et 68) se déplacent avec les quatrièmes tronçons latéraux (8, 12) lorsque ceux-ci pivotent autour de leurs axes d'articulation (13). Les extrémités des trous oblongs (70) limitent lesdits pivotements lorsqu'elles butent contre le deuxième axe (61).The damping devices (54, 55) include means (66) for limitation of the movements of the lateral sections (8 and 12) around their axes articulation (13). This limitation means (66) consists of two bars (67 and 68) located between the springs (56 and 57). Each bar (67, 68) has a hole cylindrical (69) with which it is mounted on the first axis (58) integral with the fourth lateral section (8, 12) and an oblong hole (70) with which it is mounted on the second axis (61) integral with the third lateral section (7, 11). Said bars (67 and 68) move with the fourth lateral sections (8, 12) when these pivot around their axes of articulation (13). The ends of the holes oblongs (70) limit said pivoting when they abut against the second axis (61).
Chaque dispositif d'amortissement (54, 55) peut aussi comporter un seul ressort (73) agencé de manière à travailler à la compression et à la traction (voir figure 6). Ce ressort (73) est fixé à l'une de ses extrémités sur une tige (74) qui est articulée sur le quatrième tronçon latéral (8, 12) au moyen d'un axe (75). A son autre extrémité il est fixé sur une deuxième tige (76) qui est articulée sur le troisième tronçon latéral (7, 11) au moyen d'un axe (77). Ces deux tiges (74 et 76) assurent un guidage du ressort (73). Entre elles il est prévu un jeu qui permet au ressort (73) de se comprimer d'une certaine valeur lors du repliement. En sus, elles limitent l'angle de repliement lorsqu'elles se rencontrent. L'angle de dépliage peut être limité avec des butées prévues sur les côtés inférieurs des embouts d'articulation (34 et 36) des troisièmes et quatrièmes tronçons latéraux (7, 11 et 8, 12).Each damping device (54, 55) can also include a single spring (73) arranged to work in compression and tension (see figure 6). This spring (73) is fixed at one of its ends to a rod (74) which is articulated on the fourth lateral section (8, 12) by means of an axis (75). To his other end it is fixed on a second rod (76) which is articulated on the third lateral section (7, 11) by means of a pin (77). These two rods (74 and 76) guide the spring (73). Between them there is a game which allows the spring (73) to compress by a certain value during folding. In addition, they limit the folding angle when they meet. The unfolding angle can be limited with stops provided on the lower sides of the end caps articulation (34 and 36) of the third and fourth lateral sections (7, 11 and 8, 12).
Bien que cela n'est pas représenté, il est possible de monter un dispositif d'amortissement (54, 55) au niveau de chaque articulation (13) entre les différents tronçons (4 à 12).Although not shown, it is possible to mount a device damping (54, 55) at each joint (13) between the different sections (4 to 12).
Chaque deuxième tronçon latéral (6, 10) comporte sur sa poutre (28) un appui (71, 72) pour le quatrième tronçon latéral (8, 12) en position repliée pour le transport.Each second lateral section (6, 10) has on its beam (28) a support (71, 72) for the fourth lateral section (8, 12) in the folded position for the transport.
Dans la position de travail, la machine selon l'invention occupe la position représentée sur les figures 1 et 2. Elle est alors accouplée à un tracteur et peut être déplacée à l'aide de celui-ci dans le sens de la flèche (A). Tous les tronçons latéraux (5 à 12) sont déployés et sont portés par les roues (24) qui reposent sur le sol. Les rotors (14) sont entraínés en rotation autour des axes supports (18) de manière à tourner deux à deux en convergence à l'avant (flèches F et F').In the working position, the machine according to the invention occupies the position shown in Figures 1 and 2. It is then coupled to a tractor and can be moved with it in the direction of the arrow (A). All sections lateral (5 to 12) are deployed and are carried by the wheels (24) which rest on the ground. The rotors (14) are rotated around the support axes (18) of so as to turn two by two in convergence at the front (arrows F and F ').
Leurs fourches (17) ramassent alors les produits, par exemple des brins d'herbe coupés se trouvant au sol, les déplacent vers l'arrière et les étalent à nouveau tout en provoquant leur retournement. Les différents rotors (14) peuvent suivre les dénivellations du sol en pivotant avec les tronçons (4 à 12) autour des axes d'articulation (13) de ces derniers. Leurs pivotements vers le bas sont limités par les extrémités inférieures des embouts d'articulation (26, 27, 30, 31, 33, 34 et 36).Their forks (17) then pick up the products, for example strands of cut grass lying on the ground, move them backwards and spread them out again while causing their reversal. The different rotors (14) can follow the unevenness of the ground by pivoting with the sections (4 to 12) around the articulation axes (13) of the latter. Their downward swivels are limited by the lower ends of the articulation end pieces (26, 27, 30, 31, 33, 34 and 36).
Pour transposer cette machine dans la position de transport, l'entraínement en rotation des rotors (14) est arrêté. Les deuxièmes vérins hydrauliques (45, 46) sont actionnés de telle sorte qu'ils se rétractent. Ceux-ci tirent alors sur les troisièmes tronçons latéraux (7, 11) et font pivoter ensemble ces derniers et les quatrièmes tronçons latéraux (8, 12) autour des axes d'articulation (13) avec les deuxièmes tronçons latéraux (6, 7), dans la position représentée sur la figure 3. Dans cette position, les troisièmes et les quatrièmes tronçons latéraux (7, 11 et 8, 12) ont été repliés d'un angle de près de 180°. Les quatrièmes tronçons latéraux (8, 12) reposent alors sur les appuis (71, 72). Durant ledit repliement, les quatrièmes tronçons latéraux (8, 12) pivotent librement par rapport aux troisièmes tronçons latéraux, autour de leurs axes d'articulation (13), notamment après avoir passé la position verticale. Ces pivotements sont amortis par les dispositifs d'amortissement (54, 55). Dans l'exemple selon la figure 5, le ressort (57) se comprime jusqu'à ce que les extrémités des trous oblongs (70) dans les barres (67, 68) butent contre les deuxièmes axes (61). Dans l'exemple selon la figure 6 le ressort (73) se comprime jusqu'à ce que les deux tiges (74 et 76) se rencontrent.To transpose this machine in the transport position, the drive in rotation of the rotors (14) is stopped. The second hydraulic cylinders (45, 46) are actuated so that they retract. These then fire on the third lateral sections (7, 11) and pivot together these and the fourth lateral sections (8, 12) around the axes of articulation (13) with the second lateral sections (6, 7), in the position shown in FIG. 3. In this position, the third and fourth lateral sections (7, 11 and 8, 12) have been folded back at an angle of almost 180 °. The fourth lateral sections (8, 12) then rest on the supports (71, 72). During said folding, the fourth lateral sections (8, 12) pivot freely relative to the third sections lateral, around their axes of articulation (13), in particular after having passed the vertical position. These pivotings are absorbed by the devices depreciation (54, 55). In the example according to FIG. 5, the spring (57) is compresses until the ends of the oblong holes (70) in the bars (67, 68) abut against the second axes (61). In the example according to Figure 6 the spring (73) compresses until the two rods (74 and 76) meet.
En sus, durant le repliement décrit ci-dessus les tourillons (50) des vérins hydrauliques (45, 46) se déplacent dans les orifices prévus dans les plaques (51). Dans la position repliée, ces tourillons (50) se situent dans les extrémités desdits orifices qui sont opposées à celles dans lesquelles ils se situaient au départ de la transposition. Ils se retrouvent ainsi de nouveau à une certaine distance au-dessus des axes d'articulation (13) entre les deuxièmes et les troisièmes tronçons latéraux (6, 10 et 7, 11). Ceci permettra aux vérins hydrauliques (45 et 46) de pousser avec un important bras de levier sur les troisièmes tronçons latéraux (7, 11) lors du retour en position de travail.In addition, during the folding described above the pins (50) of the cylinders hydraulics (45, 46) move in the orifices provided in the plates (51). In the folded position, these pins (50) are located in the ends of said orifices which are opposite to those in which they were located at the start of the transposition. So they find themselves again some distance above hinge pins (13) between the second and third lateral sections (6, 10 and 7, 11). This will allow the hydraulic cylinders (45 and 46) to push with a significant lever arm on the third lateral sections (7, 11) during the return to working position.
Après le repliement précité des troisièmes et quatrièmes tronçons latéraux (7, 11 et 8, 12), les premiers vérins hydrauliques (37, 38) sont actionnés de sorte qu'ils se rétractent. Ils tirent sur les deuxièmes tronçons latéraux (6, 10) et les font pivoter autour de leurs axes d'articulation (13) avec les premiers tronçons latéraux (5, 9). Les troisièmes et quatrièmes tronçons latéraux (7, 11 et 8, 12) se déplacent alors avec les deuxièmes tronçons latéraux (6, 10). Le pivotement des deuxièmes tronçons latéraux (6, 10) s'effectue jusqu'à ce que leurs arrêts (43) rencontrent les butées (44) solidaires des premiers tronçons latéraux (5, 9). L'angle de pivotement obtenu est d'environ 7°. Les butées (44) bloquent alors les deuxièmes tronçons latéraux (6, 10) par rapport aux premiers tronçons latéraux (5, 9). Ensuite, les premiers vérins hydrauliques (37, 38) font pivoter l'ensemble des tronçons latéraux (5 à 12) autour des axes d'articulation (13) avec le tronçon central (4). L'angle de pivotement autour de ces axes d'articulation est proche de 90°. Dans la nouvelle position les tronçons latéraux (5 à 12) sont sensiblement verticaux, les premiers et deuxièmes tronçons latéraux (5, 9 et 6, 10) étant dirigés vers le haut et les troisièmes et quatrièmes tronçons latéraux (7, 11 et 8, 12) étant dirigés vers le bas à partir de leurs axes d'articulation (13) respectifs (voir figure 4). Ces tronçons latéraux (5 à 12) peuvent éventuellement être immobilisés dans cette position au moyen de verrous mécaniques associés aux vérins hydrauliques (37, 38). La largeur de la machine est ainsi très réduite sans que pour autant sa longueur soit augmentée. De ce fait, cette position est idéale pour le transport.After the aforementioned folding of the third and fourth lateral sections (7, 11 and 8, 12), the first hydraulic cylinders (37, 38) are actuated so that they retract. They pull on the second lateral sections (6, 10) and make them pivot around their articulation axes (13) with the first lateral sections (5, 9). The third and fourth lateral sections (7, 11 and 8, 12) move then with the second lateral sections (6, 10). The pivoting of the second lateral sections (6, 10) are carried out until their stops (43) meet the stops (44) integral with the first lateral sections (5, 9). Swivel angle obtained is approximately 7 °. The stops (44) then block the second sections lateral (6, 10) relative to the first lateral sections (5, 9). Then the first hydraulic cylinders (37, 38) rotate all of the sections lateral (5 to 12) around the axes of articulation (13) with the central section (4). The pivot angle around these articulation axes is close to 90 °. In the new position the lateral sections (5 to 12) are substantially vertical, the first and second lateral sections (5, 9 and 6, 10) being directed upwards and the third and fourth lateral sections (7, 11 and 8, 12) being directed towards the down from their respective hinge pins (13) (see Figure 4). These sections side (5 to 12) can possibly be immobilized in this position when by means of mechanical locks associated with hydraulic cylinders (37, 38). The width of the machine is thus very reduced without its length being increased. Therefore, this position is ideal for transport.
Pour ramener la machine dans la position de travail, les premiers vérins hydrauliques (37, 38) sont actionnés pour qu'ils s'allongent. Les tronçons latéraux (5 à 12) pivotent vers le bas jusqu'à ce que les roues (24) des rotors (14) des premiers et deuxièmes tronçons latéraux (5, 9 et 6, 10) reposent sur le sol. Ensuite, les deuxièmes vérins hydrauliques (45, 46) sont actionnés pour qu'ils s'allongent. Ceux-ci poussent les troisièmes et quatrièmes tronçons latéraux (7, 11 et 8, 12) vers l'extérieur et les font pivoter autour des axes d'articulation (13) avec les deuxièmes tronçons latéraux (6, 10). Les ressorts (56 ou 73) des dispositifs (54, 55) amortissent le pivotement des quatrièmes tronçons latéraux (8, 12) autour de leurs axes (13) avec les troisièmes tronçons latéraux (7, 11) lorsqu'ils ont passé la position verticale. Ce pivotement est arrêté lorsque les extrémités des orifices oblongs (70) des barres (67, 68) butent contre les deuxièmes axes (61) ou lorsque les butées des embouts (34 et 36) se rencontrent. Durant ce dépliage des troisièmes et quatrièmes tronçons latéraux (7, 11 et 8, 12), les tourillons (50) des deuxièmes vérins hydrauliques (45, 46) se déplacent vers le haut dans les fentes des plaques (51) de sorte qu'ils se situent à nouveau à une certaine distance au-dessus des axes d'articulation (13). Lorsque tous les tronçons (4 à 12) sont à nouveau alignés, les rotors (14) peuvent être entraínés en rotation tel que décrit précédemment.To return the machine to the working position, the first cylinders hydraulics (37, 38) are actuated so that they lengthen. The lateral sections (5 to 12) pivot down until the wheels (24) of the rotors (14) of the first and second lateral sections (5, 9 and 6, 10) rest on the ground. Then, the second hydraulic cylinders (45, 46) are actuated so that they lengthen. These push the third and fourth lateral sections (7, 11 and 8, 12) outwards and rotate them around the hinge pins (13) with the second lateral sections (6, 10). The springs (56 or 73) of the devices (54, 55) dampen the pivoting of the fourth lateral sections (8, 12) around their axes (13) with the third lateral sections (7, 11) when they have passed the vertical position. This pivoting is stopped when the ends of the orifices oblong (70) bars (67, 68) abut against the second axes (61) or when the stops of the end pieces (34 and 36) meet. During this unfolding of third and fourth lateral sections (7, 11 and 8, 12), the pins (50) of the second hydraulic cylinders (45, 46) move up in the slots plates (51) so that they are again some distance above hinge pins (13). When all the sections (4 to 12) are again aligned, the rotors (14) can be rotated as described previously.
